Bronwyn Is Opening in Somerville's Union Square

Yet another dining spot is on its way to the Union Square section of Somerville, and the folks behind the place also happen to run a high-end restaurant in neighboring Cambridge.

The Boston Magazine Chowder blog is reporting that Bronwyn is opening on Washington Street, bringing to the Union Square neighborhood what looks to be a New American bistro that will likely have Austrian, German, and Northern Italian influences. The husband-and-wife team who own T.W. Food in the Huron Village section of Cambridge are behind the new spot, which is expected to open in the fall. The Chowder blog mentions that Bronwyn will be more of a casual place than T.W. Food, and it will feature a sausage tasting menu, specialty Schnapps, and an outdoor beer garden.

Union Square will soon be seeing several other restaurants on the way as well, including Cafe Tango and Fortissimo.

[November 20 update: Eater Boston reports that Bronwyn is planning to open in December, with the post also mentioning that the dining spot will have a full liquor license and the menu will lean toward Eastern European fare.]

[May 7, 2013 update: Grub Street states that Bronwyn is planning to open on Wednesday, May 15.]
